Seyes Exercise Books for Côte d'Ivoire
Francophone Seyes-ruled exercise books with sewn bindings built for a hot, humid climate, shipped to Abidjan for the school season.
Notebook Manufacturing for Africa
Africa is a specification and delivery market. School books, NGO literacy programmes and retail exercise books dominate the demand, and the climate punishes any binding that is not built for heat and humidity.
Market Focus
Built around this market
Francophone and Lusophone ruling
Seyes ruling for French-speaking markets, Portuguese conventions for Angola and Mozambique, and British-line ruling for Anglophone countries — all held as production templates.
Built for heat and humidity
Sewn and PUR-glued bindings specified for tropical climates where EVA hot-melt softens. Board lamination prevents warping in coastal humidity.
Education and NGO programmes
Exercise books and literacy kits for ministries, UNICEF-style aid programmes and international NGOs, with documentation to match donor requirements.
African ports and lanes
Regular shipments to Tema, Lagos (Apapa), Mombasa, Durban and Casablanca, with transit times quoted honestly against the school calendar.
High-opacity, double-sided paper
55-70gsm paper with high opacity grades, because students write on both sides and paper cost is often the whole specification.
